I've made a program that creates a log of the activities performed in it, for easy reference for the user. But I want the program to automatically delete the file after the program is shut down. What is the syntax and how do I go about doing it?

Jump to PostTo delete a file use the C++ remove() function.
Jump to PostIf you're writing a Windows application, try the DeleteFile function available in winbase.h:
BOOL DeleteFile( LPCTSTR lpFileName // pointer to name of file to delete );

Now, please post again. That 666 (posts) is making me uneasy ;-)
